Welcome to my new website

Many of us over 60 are counted out when part-time jobs come up despite our collective wisdom and abilities.

To counter some of this prejudice I have dispensed with sending my CV and have instead created The Complete Picture, an animated ninety second overview of my life to date @ https://vimeo.com/223960456.

See IT in Action demonstrates how councils and partners can use technology to
transform the delivery of public services, improve outcomes, and help achieve
more for less.
This is a free event, supported by Communities and Local Government, local
authorities and civil society partners.

With local government facing severe financial pressures, there is the need to
look for urgent and innovative ways to make efficiency savings, while ensuring
the most vulnerable are not disadvantaged. Incremental change and individual
cuts are unlikely to meet the challenge, therefore it has never been timelier to
examine services and outcomes and ask whether there are more effective and
efficient alternatives to 'business and usual'.

See IT in Action will bring together examples of best practice from local
government, to show how public sector providers across the country are making
creative use of existing 'off-the-shelf' technology; improving outcomes and
delivering increased value for money across a range of front-line local
services.

The event provides a timely forum to explore new government priorities around
increasing internet usage, the Big Society, and data transparency, openess and
accountability.

Those attending will have the opportunity to:

* visit more than 40 'market stall' demonstration stands, hosted by councils
from across the country - find out more about the market stall here:

practitioners - see the agenda for the whole day here: http://digitalinclusionteam.cmail3.com/t/y/l/milhkl/birzkukh/j

key aspects of using technology for transform public services - view the
workshop list and book your place now: http://digitalinclusionteam.cmail3.com/t/y/l/milhkl/birzkukh/t

can be achieved

* find out how use the new benefits and beneficiaries tool - providing critical
insight for those commissioning and decommissioning services

* learn how to harness the power of the internet at the social media surgery

Delegates will benefit from the practical expertise and experience of those at
the forefront of public service innovation. Talk to colleagues from across the
country who are using IT to deliver 'more for less', support joined-up working
and effective community engagement, and ensure better outcomes for local
residents.

It is your opportunity to ensure you are ready, well informed and have the
contacts necessary to meet the challenges facing those delivering today's public
services.
